specialized reference work.
The present book collection of over 71,000 volumes is supple-
mented by extensive holdings of periodicals, microfilms, microcards,
curriculum materials, federal and state documents, association pub-
lications, and phonographic records.
The Rhodes R. Stabley Library was opened in 1961. It is

cellent collection of films, filmstrips, and other audio-visual equip-
ment. Students may learn how to use audio-visual materials through
courses offered in this area.
History of the Graduate Program
Graduate work was inaugurated at Indiana State College in
September, 1957.
The Graduate Program at Indiana offers work leading to the de-
of Master of Education. A student may now complete the re-
quirements for this degree by following any one of eleven programs.
These programs offer majors in Business Education, Elementary Edu-
cation. English. Geography, Guidance, Mathematics, Music Education.
12 GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Biological Science, Physical Science, Science, and Social Studies. The
curriculums for these programs are explained in the following pages
under the respective captions.
Admissions Policy for Graduate Study
Admission to the Graduate Study Program at Indiana is govern-
ed by the following policy which has been established by the Grad-
uate Council:
1. The applicant must present a Bachelor's degree from a col-
lege or university that has been accredited by the Middle
States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools or the
appropriate regional accrediting agency.
2. The applicant must present a transcript of his undergraduate
work showing a 2.5 honor point value for all four years of
his undergraduate work. The 2.5 assumes a grade of A to
have 4 honor points per credit hour, a grade of B to have 3
honor points per credit hour, and a grade of C to have 2
honor points per credit hour. If the applicant's undergrad-
uate record does not meet this 2.5 honor point value, or if
he is a graduate of an unaccredited college, he may be ad-
mitted by making a satisfactory score on an entrance quali-
fication examination.
3. The applicant must possess a Pennsylvania Teacher's Certif-
icate or its equivalent. This implies that a student will have
an undergraduate major in the field in which he wishes to
work for the Master's Degree.
4. A satisfactory recommendation must be obtained from the
applicant's undergraduate department or from qualified ref-
erences.
Students applying for the degree in Music Education must
present evidence of musical maturity in a formal audition
before the Graduate Committee of the Music Education De-
partment.
Admission to Graduate Study does not automatically mean that
the student is a candidate for the Master's degree at Indiana. Ad-
mission to candidacy for the degree may be granted only after six
or more hours of graduate work have been successfully completed
at Indiana.
Steps Necessary for Admission to Graduate Study
1 . The applicant will file an application for graduate work with
the Dean of Graduate Studies. Write to Dr. I. L. Stright,
Dean of Graduate Studies, for application forms.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF GRADUATE SESSIONS 13
2. Each applicant will present a transcript of all undergraduate
work taken for the Bachelor's degree. Transcripts of pre-
vious work taken at Indiana need not be submitted.
3. Each applicant may be required to have a personal inter-
view with the Dean of Graduate Studies or an assigned faculty
member.
Admission to Candidacy for the Degree
The student should complete the following steps to qualify for
admission to candidacy:
1. Submit an official application for admission to candidacy.
2. Submit a transcript of graduate work completed at other in-
stitutions.
3. Complete at least six semester hours of graduate work at
Indiana.
4. Receive satisfactory course evaluations from the student's
graduate instructors.
5. Submit a tentative program of study for the completion of
the graduate program.
The application for admission to candidacy, the transcript of the
graduate record, and the tentative program of study should be sub-
mitted by the student to the Dean of Graduate Studies. Acceptance
to candidacy requires the approval of the Dean of Graduate Studies.
Semester Hours Required for the Degree
A minimum of thirty semester hours of approved graduate work
beyond a Bachelor's degree is required. A well balanced, unified and
complete program of study will be required regardless of the minimum
credit requirement. Many students may find it necessary to earn
more than the minimum number of credits before they will be re-
garded ready for the degree. Indiana State College is not committed
to grant a degree upon the completion of thirty credits.
Full Time-Part Time Student
It is possible for a student to schedule a full time load in many
of the approved programs. Ten to sixteen semester hours of work per
semester is regarded a full time graduate schedule. Full time students
should submit their proposed schedule for approval as early as pos-
sible. For part time students who are teaching, a maximum of four
semester hours or two courses may be scheduled each semester. The
number of semester hours of work obtained during summer sessions
shall not exceed the number of weeks of attendance.
GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Time Limit
Thirty' semester hours must be completed within the five-year
period immediately preceding the date when all the requirements for
the degree are completed. For justifiable reasons the Graduate Coun-
cil may extend this period.
Residence
A minimum of ten semester hours will be required to be taken
during summer sessions. Courses taken prior to September, 1957, at
Indiana State College may not be used as graduate work.
Scholarship Requirement
A candidate must, have maintained a grade point average of 3.0
B , in all work taken after receiving the Bachelor's degree. Only
grades of "A", "B", or "C" are acceptable toward a Master's degree.
Marking system: grade of "A". 4 quality points: "B", 3 quality points:
2 quality points.
Permanent Certification Requirements
By action of: the State Council on Education, all colleges certif-
icates issued after October 1, 1959, will require the completion of at
least twelve hours of post-baccalaureate work for permanent certif-
ication. This requirement will probably be increased in the future.
All teachers who are able, to qualify for admission to a graduate
program and who are able to profit by graduate work should be en-
couraged to do the work required for Permanent Certification in a
Graduate Program in order that it may also be used toward a Master's
degree.
When to Apply for Admission
Application forms for admission may be obtained from the Grad-
uate Office. Applicants are urged to complete the necessary steps for
admission as soon as possible. 'Check calendar on pages 4 and 5
for deadline dates!. Write to Dr. I. L. Stright, Dean of Graduate
Studies, State College, Indiana, Pennsylvania.

18 GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
In each of the several programs leading to the Master's degree
at Indiana, the student takes work in several categories. In the first
category he must take at least 14 hours and may do up to 22 hours
in Content Courses in the particular program in which he is work-
ing. In the Content Courses the student is expected to enrich and
increase his knowledge in his subject area field.
A second is entitled Professional Studies in which he must com-
plete from 4 to 10 hours of work. The work in this area is designed to
supplement the Professional Studies of his undergraduate program
and to increase the student's general knowledge of the teaching-
learning process and of basic professional problems.
All students must take at least one course in the area of Founda-
tions of Education. Courses in this area are designed to help the
student realize the important place of public education in America.
Every student must complete the course entitled Elements of Re-
search. Research plays an important part to the graduate student in
any of the Indiana programs. The research training should enable
the student to acquire the techniques of research as well as to be able
to interpret and comprehend current research as it is applied to a
teacher's particular position.
Objectives and Philosophy of the Graduate Program
The primary purposes of the Graduate Program at Indiana,
which leads to the degree of Master of Education, are to increase the
competence of the general classroom teacher; to stimulate a greater
awareness of educational philosophies and problems in order that
teachers may assume more responsible roles in the educational pro-
gram of their communities; and to provide an incentive for continued
professional growth. Probably the principal characteristic of the
Indiana Graduate Program is its primary objective — ■ to help good
teachers become better teachers.
Student Responsibility
The graduate student is expected to know the requirements for
the degree he plans to earn. While the officers and teachers of the
Graduate Division will endeavor to aid in any way possible, the
responsibility for any error in his own enrollment or in the interpre-
tation of the requirements rests with the student.
Graduate Study in Reading
Elementary teachers interested in reading may apply six (6)
semester hours of work in the area of professional studies in the
Elementary Program. Junior and Senior High School teachers ma-
joring in English may apply six (6) semester hours of work in the
professional studies area in the English program. Reading will be
written on the certificate valid for English when an applicant has com-
pleted a minimum of six (6) semester hours in developmental and
remedial reading.

RESEARCH REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE
The candidate foi tl Educat:
niusi rch requiremi tablished by the Graduate
Council. This requirement is essentially that the candidate must
duct an independent stud\ related to his major field and report on
this stud\ with a written tl
niusi. tal. The studv may t subject field or in
professional education. A ill carry from two to four houi
gradi lit as determined b\ the chairman timit-
nd the Dean of Graduate Studies. The Dean of Graduate Stud-
ies will apply the thesis credit to the student's program in the Subject
Matter Concentration Area or in the area of Professional Studies
depending on the nature of the topic selected. The research project
does not carry graduate credit and. unlike the thesis or recital, may
not be counted as part of the thirty semestei I uired for the
degi i
Purposes of the Research Requirement
The initiation, conduct, and description of a research stud
suits in professional growth usually not attained in other ways. The
completed thesis or research project certifies that the student is com-
petent to identify a research topic and to pursue research in his field.
An acceptable research report should show evidence that the student:
1. Has comprehended the essentials of his problem, has followed
a well organized plan of work, and has presented satisfactory
solutions.
2. Has made a comprehensive study of the related literature.
3. Has made an independent and intensive study of the problem.
4. Has a practical working knowledge of research procedui
5. Has shown the ability to write in a professional style.
6. Has reached conclusions justified by the findin
7. Has produced a report of value to the subject field or to pro-
fessional education.
Distinction Between a Thesis and Research Project
The basic distinction between a research project and a the
as follows: the project must make a contribution to the student by
helping him to improve his teaching or other educational activity;
the thesis, in addition, should contribute new knowledge to the field
of study.
The project need not represent original research and may consist
of adapting other findings to the student's local situation or oi
peating other investigations in different circumstances. The thesis,
however, should make a contribution to the student's field of inquiry
— a far- more rigorous condition than that established for the project.
34 GRADUATE STUDIES BULLETIN
Minor distinctions may be made with regard to the extent or
scope of the study and the level of research competence needed to
accomplish the study, but these are distinctions suborbinate to the
basic one given above. Deciding if a particular activity is of a thesis
or project nature is primarily the responsibility of the student's ad-
viser who must determine if the study will truly contribute to the
field or if it will adapt available data to new situations.
Steps in Satisfying the Research Requirements
1. The course "Elements of Research/' Ed 515, is designed to
help students plan their research. Since many studies require
considerable time for completion., it is desirable to schedule
Ed 515 early in the graduate program, although it is helpful
if the student has completed some work in the major field
first. As part of the requirements for Ed 515, the student will
prepare a written plan for the investigation of a problem, or
research proposal.
2. The student should discuss his proposed research with his ad-
viser and the Director of Research. The student, with the
approval of his adviser, should decide on a research project,
thesis or recital. Formal approval of the topic may not be
obtained until the student has been accepted as a degree can-
didate (see Admission to Candidacy for the Degree - page
13.
3. The student submits the research proposal to his adviser or
the Graduate Office and secures formal approval of the pro-
posal. A research project proposal requires the approval of
the adviser, the Director of Research, and the Dean of Grad-
uate Studies. A thesis or recital proposal requires the ap-
proval of the committee and the Dean of Graduate Studies.
A thesis committee will normally consist of the adviser, the
chairman of the major department, the Director of Research,
and at least one other faculty member.
4. After securing formal approval of his research proposal, the
student should conduct his investigation and begin writing his
report as soon as possible. The adviser and Director of Re-
search should be kept informed of the progress of the study.
A rough draft of the project or thesis should be submitted for
review well in advance of the deadline date for the final draft.
5. The deadline date for final draft of the project or thesis or
for the recital performance for January graduates is the pre-
ceding December 1; for May graduates April 1; and for
August graduates July 1. The final draft should be typed and
be as free from errors as the student is able to make it. Only
\\\< II I ( IF GR \Dl \l I si SSIONS
minoi corrections will he permitted aftei the deadlim
and in the event majoi revision is required which cannot be
completed before this date, the student will be required to
postpone graduation. When the final draft has been approv-
ed, tin- studenl will he given instructi preparing the

required abstracts, must he submitted prioi to commi
ment. The style and format of the finishei
form to the style manual and additional instructions adopted
by the Division of Graduate Studies.
The Advisor) System
The purpose' of the advisory system is to insure that the stu-
dent's work follows a coherent, well-balanced, and unified program
for his professional growth and development. The advisory respon-
sibility falls into two parts:
1. Prior to admission to candidacy: At this stage the advisory
function is essentially the responsibility of the Dean of Graduate
Studies and includes the following:
a. To assist the student in preparing his plan of graduate study.
b. To recommend the student for admission to candidacy upon
completion of the necessary requirements.
c. To aid the student in the selection of an adviser for com-
pletion of degree requirements after he is accepted for can-
didacy.
d. To encourage the student to attend seminars for the dis-
cussion of the nature of the graduate program.
2. After acceptance of candidate for the degree: The graduate
student will be assigned, or may choose with the approval of the
Dean of Graduate Studies, a faculty adviser to assist him in his grad-
uate work. Necessary changes in advisers may be made at the dis-
cretion of the Dean of Graduate Studies. This adviser should be com-
petent in the student's area of specialization, as his primary respon-
sibility is to assist the student in choosing, preparing, and presenting
his thesis or project in oral and written form as a demonstration of
professional competence.

BUSINESS EDUCATION
The graduate program in Business Education at Indiana is primarily de-
signed to permit teachers to broaden their understanding of the business world
and to have an opportunity to study their teaching procedures in the light of
experiences they have gained.
A study of the curriculum being offered indicates that from fourteen to
sixteen credit hours are to be taken in the subject matter concentration area.
Students should avail themselves of the opportunity to select many of the large
offering of courses in the basic business area along with a choice of at least one
of the areas concerned with either accounting, secretarial, or retailing.
It would seem advisable in scheduling that those courses in the subject
matter concentration area should be scheduled early and taken first, making
use of those courses in the general studies and foundation of education as they
can be fitted into one's schedule as his work progresses. The course in Ele-
ments of Research should be taken after one has gotten started but not delayed
too long. A suggestion would be to take the course after having had six hours
of graduate work and no more than ten hours. It is usually while taking this
course that plans for a project or thesis are made and getting started on this
part of one's work should not be delayed.
When a tentative research problem has been chosen, immediate steps
should be taken to have an advisor assigned through the joint direction of the
Dean of Graduate Studies and the Chairman of the Department. It might be
well to note at this point that everyone must do a project, which carries no
credits, or an original research which can vary in credit value from two to
four credits.

SCIENCE
Due to the rapidly expanding role of Science in our technological society,
secondary schools are finding it necessary to increase their offerings in this field.
This in turn requires teachers with strong backgrounds of knowledge as well as
a greater number of science teachers. The Science Department recognizes the
important role of Science in modern society and has planned the graduate pro-
gram in Science to provide maximum opportunities for science teachers to im-
prove themselves scholastically and in teaching techniques.
Two areas of concentration are available to the graduate student. These
are Biological Science and Physical Science. Students who have specialized in
either of these broad areas in undergraduate school will find a wide offering
of courses in these two content areas at the graduate level. In many instances
teachers in one of these areas may wish to take courses in the alternate field.
Provision is made for such contingencies.
Prior to his admission to candidacy for a degree, each student is assigned
a faculty adviser by the Dean of Graduate Studies. With the aid of the ad-
viser, the candidate will select a program which will make a maximum con-
tribution to the development of the candidate in his chosen field. The ad-
